I forgot who requested this song, because I felt sure someone would post
it. After all, we have a lot of lets do the campfire types here on the
list. But when I saw "When the Ants Go Marching" I knew I had to help!
The song I think your looking for is
"I Points to Mineself" I have it here in my 1984 printing of the BSA
Songbook.
As you sing this action-fun song, point to the proper part of your body
when you mention it in the song. For example: Point to the top of your
head as you sing topnotcher. Continue singing and add another part of your
body for each verse and repeast others, going backward from last item to
first. Try as many versas as you want, using the list below. For the
boom-boom, clap hnads, bang on tables, or stamp feet.
I Points to Mineself
I points to mine-self, vas is das here;
Das is mine top-notch-er, ya ma-ma dear.
Top-notcher-er, top-notcher-er, ya ma-ma dear.
Dat's wot I learned in der school, boom-boom!
I points to mine-self, vas is das here;
Das is mine Sweat browser, ya ma-ma dear.
Sweat browser, topnotcher, ya ma-ma dear.
Dat's wot I learned in der school, boom-boom!
I points to mine-self, vas is das bere;
Das is my Eye winker, ya ma-ma dear.
Eye winker, Sweat browser, Topnotcher, ya ma-ma dear.
Dat's wot I learned inder school, boom-boom!

If it was the Ants Go marching song you wanted, then fifty lashes with a
wet noodle for me ;-), but I still think this song is more fun! (more
difficult, but more fun!)

The requirements for Eagle are mostly trivial, any scout is capable. Doing
them is what is significant, because most people never finish what they start.
